Cheers dude, although I have to stop myself now I think - what started as simply rewiring my megajolt has turned into a full, dash out, strip down and rewire/hide wiring mission.....

Really crap photos but some of the state of the front end and inside (dash is out but in place):

My pentax has gone awol - 2yr old phone camera with no flash will have to do!

Being as lionel hurt my feelings by highlighting my lack of camera - I had to go and buy one.......

Spent an hour on the wiring last night, starting to put things back - before:

After:

For anyone that is interested I've removed the radio, surplus (ie options I didn't have) and now not needed (rear wash/wipe, switch lighting etc) wiring.

Also put in my fusebox for the fuel pump and mj, earths for mj, tps and edis. Finally ran my ignition battery cable, fuel pump live and washer pump down the centre of the car - need to add to this the extended cable for the alternator/starter.

looking good matey :thumb:

Im thinking about cutting the dash down a bit before putting it back in - I need to keep the top for the heater vents and to look reasonably standard from outside. Pondering removing the black area - and then painting the rest satin black:

Well i chopped it anyway - and mounted the fusebox etc up, I think it looks ok and will definately make accessing fuses easier than when it was rattling about behind the dash like it used to:
